Logging broadcast Intents and manually trigger them (Android)

during my development in android I've missed a开发者_开发技巧 function that can log every broadcast intent that occur. Sometimes it had been very useful to have a function like that...

I'm also wondering how to trigger those broadcast intents manually on the emulator.

Is there an entire overview of available broadcast intents?

Would be great if someone would have some answers,

They are logged to LogCat. Use adb logcat, DDMS, or the DDMS perspective in Eclipse to view them.

For the ones you are allowed to send, call sendBroadcast(). For system-generated ones, you generally cannot "trigger" them "manually".

Not really. Check out the documentation for Intent. All of the ACTION_ strings whose comment says "Broadcast Action" are broadcast Intents. There are a few other scattered elsewhere in the system.
